Legoland!

We committed to buying Merlin passes this year so that we could make the most of the family attractions in the UK with our children during the summer holidays and also be able to visit some of the places on our Family wish list.

This summer we decided to go to Legoland! The kids absolutely loved it! I think Umi is the perfect age to be able to sit on all the rides, whereas Toffie who is under 2 didn't really have much to do other than playing at Duplo Valley or in the pirate park. Its the perfect place for children 5-12 I think! I would definitely recommend it to any family considering to pay a visit but please be aware it is very expensive and if you travel during peak time you will have to queue roughly 45mins to an hour per ride! This can be very frustrating and difficult if you have impatient children! However you can jump the queue by purchasing Q-bot!

Adult tickets can cost you £46 roughly with a child ticket priced at £41. Children under 3 are free! Usually you can find 2 for 1 ticket offers online or on the back of cereal boxes - so do plan your trip and search for money saving coupons otherwise you'll have a very expensive day!

The best rides to queue for are: Pirate Falls, Viking River, Dragon Ride and Atlantis. The 4D cinema is also very good and one you should definitely not miss! Duplo Valley is an outdoor water play area for the kids - remember to pack the swimming bags!

 

NOTE

• Lunch options aren't very cheap at Legoland so it might be a good idea to pack some sandwiches and have a little family picnic instead. 
• Parking charges - there is a fee to pay! Without this ticket you cannot exit the theme park. Parking is free for Premium Annual Pass holders
